Supertop – Installation Instructions
Install Bow Assembly
Release the small metal rods from the plastic clips
on both sides of the vehicle.
Lift the Top (Front) Bow and start the male end
of the Bottom (Rear) Bow into the female end.
Push forward on the bow until the two sides snap
together.
Slide the Bottom (Rear) Bow up on the Top (Front)
Bow to access the rear bolt position in the Bow
Mount. Install and tighten the rear bolt in the Bow
Mount on both sides of the vehicle.
Raise the Top (Front) Bow Assembly, holding the
small rods in an upright position, and insert the
Vertical Rods into the hole in the Vertical Retainer
Mount. Attach the Horizontal Rod to the Windshield
Bracket using the Bailhead Stud. The pin on the
Bailhead Stud will only turn clockwise because of
the prongs on the edges of the opening in the Wind-
shield Bracket. Slip the pin through the opening and
turn the Bailhead Stud a quarter turn clockwise so
that the fl anges on the pin are secure between the
prongs.
